NAME
Devel::Cover - Code coverage metrics for Perl
DESCRIPTION
This module provides code coverage metrics for Perl.
If you can't guess by the version number this is an alpha release.
Code coverage data are collected using a plugable runops function which
counts how many times each op is executed. These data are then mapped
back to reality using the B compiler modules. There is also a statement
profiling facility which needs a better backend to be really useful.
The cover program can be used to generate coverage reports.
At the moment, only statement, pod and time coverage information is
reported. Condition coverage data is available, though not accurate at
the moment. Statement coverage data should be reasonable, although there
may be some statements which are no reported. Pod coverage comes from
Pod::Coverage. Coverage data for other metrics are collected, but not
reported. Coverage data for some metrics are not yet collected.
You may find that the results don't match your expectations. I would
imagine that at least one of them is wrong.
Requirements: Perl 5.6.1 or 5.7.1. The ability to compile XS extensions.
Pod::Coverage if you want pod coverage.
